CD-i Emulator is the first fully evolving windows compatible emulator project of the Philips CD-i system. Discuss the emulator, compatibility issues, seek help and support to get the program operating and post what you'd like to see in future revisions of the program. CD-i players ROM (BIOS) requests, begging and links will not be tolerated. Otherwise feel free to post your thoughts on this amazing new piece of software.

I have just released the second public beta of CD-i Emulator version 0.5.3 for Windows.

This is mainly a bugfix release. It fixes the problem where the 0.5.3-beta1 version displays a "You have exceeded the evaluation time limit" message immediately after starting emulation. A small number of minor bugs have also been fixed.

The internals of CD-i Emulator have been restructured somewhat to enable OS-9 emulation, but this functionality is not yet included in this public release. There is only one user-visible new feature:

- Color-coding of the disc timecode display has been added: blue for TOC / yellow for CR-ROM / green for CD-I / red for CD-DA, based on a suggestion by Anna Wu.

More information can be found on the CD-i Emulator website, in particular the Release Notes section. The beta release can be downloaded from the Downloads section; don't forget to read the README, HOWTO and RELNOTES documents included with the emulator!

Any questions, comments, etc should be posted to this forum, where the answers will be useful to the entire user community.

Can we expect an update sometime in the near future. I don't mean to rush you or anything but it seems like the emulator hasn't had much support lately. I am just hoping you are still updating it and you haven't left us
